Ummmmmmm...no.

Here is the 3.5 Altima's performance specs:
0-60 MPH 7.5 seconds
1/4 (E.T.) 16.0 seconds @ 90.5 mph
Top-speed 120 mph

Evo's performance specs :
0-6 MPH 4.8 seconds
1/4 (E.T.) 13.4 seconds @103.0
Top-Speed 155 mph

What would getting a MR solve?, you would have a 6speed... woohoo.. there's alot to say about flash/exhaust. people who leave there cars "stock" would be suprised what a 85$ cable and a new map can do

my '04 is stock until this week, the local mitsu dealer is "relatively mod friendly" so i went ahead and throw in alittle bit of this and that. But a stock Evo is a very capable car already.

I came from owning a modded wrx, so I told myself I would keep it stock for a long time since it was a huge step up. I lasted 6 months

38,000 miles so far and 100% stock. I really want to get a tune so that I can get better mileage. No other modifications appeal to me. As soon as Al comes to Fresno, I'm on it.

What makes you say that? I think it's safe to say that virtually everyone who spends time here is aware of a flash's performance potential. Folks have different reason for leaving their cars stock, but it doesn't seem that lack of information is one of them.

Keeping it stock

I purchased my 03' thinking mods would be made, but I was happy with it up to the 36k miles I put on it with the stock clutch. It was very quick for a stock 4 door, best 1/4 mile being a 13.13 @103 stock.
